Chapter 1464: Chapter 1464: Ancestor Dragon’s Divine Statue

"Fellow Daoist, are you referring to the Flame Demon Taoist Ancestor of the Burning Heaven Valley?"

The young man from the Night Emperor Faction pressed for confirmation.

"Precisely."

Ye Yun nodded and casually smiled, saying, "However, even if you help me find him, I won’t stay in Wrong Death City. I must tell you this in advance."

The young man from the Night Emperor Faction: "..."

At this moment, he was at a loss for words.

Such an exceptionally promising master, if he could recruit him into the Night Emperor Faction, he would earn significant rewards from the Night Emperor.

"Hehe..." The Monster Clan Big Man suddenly grinned, rolling his eyes, and cheerfully said, "Fellow Daoist, why not let my Monster Emperor Faction help you find the Flame Demon Taoist Ancestor? We have no demands, only wishing to forge a good bond..."

"That would be wonderful."

Ye Yun smiled slightly, then took a step forward and walked on.

Yu Lingfei and Yu Qingshuang suppressed their expressions and quickly followed him.

The young man from the Night Emperor Faction and the Monster Clan Big Man did not dare to obstruct them, retreating two steps to make way, watching the three of them walk past.

"Fellow Daoist, where are you going?"

The Monster Clan Big Man seemed to recall something and suddenly shouted.

"To visit the Death Temple."

Ye Yun replied without turning his head.

"Alright, if there’s any news of the Flame Demon Taoist Ancestor, I’ll find you at the Death Temple!"

The Monster Clan Big Man chuckled, and with a flicker, he disappeared.

Although Wrong Death City does not prohibit flying, it does restrict Divine Sense.

Everyone’s Divine Sense is extremely limited, usually within a hundred zhang, with few capable of exceeding it.

So even with a high cultivation base, finding someone still depends on manpower.

Therefore, factions with more people find individuals quickly.

"I also need to report to the Night Emperor..."

The young man from the Night Emperor Faction showed a changing expression, hesitated for a few seconds, then gritted his teeth and vanished from the spot.

This matter is too important.

If the Kill Emperor Faction sends a strong force to eliminate this white-clad youth, it would be a massive loss for both the Night Emperor Faction and the Monster Emperor Faction.

Such a prodigy, if absorbed into the faction, after a period of growth, could surely rival the Night Emperor.

If deceased.

It would indeed be too unfortunate.

...

After walking for a while, Ye Yun found a passerby to ask for the location of the Death Temple, then proceeded.

Wrong Death City isn’t large, at most a medium-sized city.

Ye Yun estimated roughly that the cultivators living here do not exceed a hundred thousand.

Thus, the central bustling area is still relatively populous.

On the city outskirts, fewer people reside.

Strolling along, after merely a stick of incense time, after turning a few streets, Ye Yun saw a black temple.

The temple is not large in scale, but its architectural style is unique, entirely pitch black and distinctively shaped, with various Divine Beast statues carved on its eaves.

At the temple entrance.

Surprisingly, there were two unrecognizable eerie demon beast statues, with fierce appearances, clearly Ferocious Beasts at a glance.

At this moment, people continually entered the temple entrance.

Yu Lingfei looked at this temple, murmuring to herself, "This is the legendary Death Temple. It’s said that inside, they worship the Statue of Lord of Death, capable of contending against the Nine Great Emperor Gates..."

"Let’s go have a look."

Ye Yun smiled indifferently, stepping towards it.

What God of Death?

In his eyes, it too is merely like a chicken or dog.

Yu Lingfei gently stuck out her tongue, hastily following behind.

"Brother Yun, if the Flame Demon Taoist Ancestor knows you are seeking him, wouldn’t he flee upon hearing the news...?"

Yu Qingshuang ran over, standing beside Ye Yun, and said earnestly.

"A monk can run away, but not the temple, rest assured..."

Ye Yun chuckled lightly.

Just within the time they spoke, he had already walked into the Death Temple.

Entering the temple, there was a large plaza paved with black stone; several halls were situated around it, with the doors of the largest main hall open, immediately drawing Ye Yun’s attention.

A towering black statue, several zhang high, stood inside the main hall, with dozens of people kneeling below it.

The statue’s body differed from ordinary people, wearing a wide black robe, with both hands forming a peculiar Hand Seal before its chest.

What surprised Ye Yun was that the black statue had no facial features, a bare face with not even eyes, looking somewhat creepy.

"Is this the Lord of Death..."

Yu Lingfei exclaimed in surprise, seeing the Statue of Lord of Death for the first time.

This kind of Faceless God Statue was something she had never seen, so it was naturally shocking.

"Let’s go!"

Ye Yun chuckled softly and without hesitation quickened his pace, walking through the main hall’s door.

Entering the main hall.

Only then did Ye Yun discover that on both sides of the enormous Statue of Lord of Death, there were two rows of small statues, entirely black.

These statues were bizarrely shaped, not resembling normal humans, but, fortunately, each one had facial features, unlike the Lord of Death.

"Strange, why is there a Black Dragon hidden among many statues?"

Yu Qingshuang’s gaze shifted, suddenly exclaiming in surprise.

Ye Yun’s eyelids slightly narrowed, showing a somewhat solemn expression, looking at that Black Dragon statue.

Upon entering the main hall, he too saw this Black Dragon statue.

The color of this Black Dragon was, at first glance, black, but after a while, it appeared black-purple, and if observed even longer, there were even rainbow hues flowing across the statue’s surface.

Within this black color, a myriad of colors was contained, quite magical.

Ye Yun’s expression grew progressively solemn.

"Strange, why is the Ancestor Dragon’s statue appearing in the Death Temple of Wrong Death City?"

After several breaths, Ye Yun’s gaze became deeper, with a roar emanating from his heart.

Indeed.

The black dragon before his eyes, over a zhang high, is the Ancestor Dragon.

Ye Yun also did not expect to see the Ancestor Dragon’s statue in the Death Temple of Wrong Death City.

His expression was complex as he walked step by step to the base of the Ancestor Dragon statue.

The Ancestor Dragon statue coiled within a black altar, with a plaque in front bearing several words.

"Dragon God Position."

Gazing at these four words, Ye Yun’s emotions surged, unable to calm for a long time.

Yu Lingfei and Yu Qingshuang stood behind, looking around, not noticing the change in Ye Yun’s expression.

At this time, a black-robed elder approached.

"Fellow Daoist, upon seeing the Dragon God Position, won’t you offer incense?"

The black-robed elder smiled, casually handing over three sticks of incense.

"Very well..." With a sigh, Ye Yun adopted a solemn expression, took the incense, lit it, and placed it into the incense burner.

The black-robed elder then looked at the two women, smiling as he said, "The Lord Dragon God is of noble status, receiving offerings from all beings entering Wrong Death City; you two should also present incense..."

"Okay!"

Yu Lingfei nodded hurriedly, and together with her sister Yu Qingshuang, accepted the incense, lit it, and inserted it into the incense burner.

Ye Yun turned around.

Looking at this Second Level of Divine Emperor Realm black-robed elder, he smilingly said, "Fellow Daoist, you’re not from the three major factions, are you?"

"I am the Guardian of the Death Temple, not a member of any faction, only abiding by the command of the Lord of Death."

The black-robed elder put his hands together, appearing pious as he spoke.

"Fellow Daoist, why is there a statue of the Lord Dragon God in the main hall of this Death Temple?"

Ye Yun asked calmly, gazing at the black-robed elder.

"The Lord Dragon God is unparalleled, unmatched throughout history. Over millions of years, he is the only one to enter Wrong Death City and leave safely..."

Gazing at the Black Dragon statue, the black-robed elder solemnly replied.

"This Lord Dragon God had the ability to leave Wrong Death City? Did the Lord of Death intentionally let him pass?"

Ye Yun smirked deliberately.

"This... I am not sure..."

The black-robed elder shook his head, smiling bitterly, "The events of those years are somewhat complicated; I’ve only heard that the Lord Dragon God once fled to the Wrong Death River, hid for a while, and then left safely by some means."

"Turns out he came fleeing..."

Ye Yun’s expression deepened, with furrowed brows.

He also hadn’t anticipated that the Ancestor Dragon once fell into trouble at Wrong Death City.

"After the Lord Dragon God’s departure, the Lord of Death deliberately established the Lord Dragon God’s statue so that all beings entering Wrong Death City would pay homage to this Lord Dragon God..."

The black-robed elder further explained.
